Managed website service
Managed means: your website gets better every month.
A real managed website service covers technology, content, visibility and reporting, not just updates. Classic maintenance plans ($50 to $150 per month) keep your website alive. We keep it working for you: changes within 48 hours, continuous search work and visibility in AI answers, as a fixed part of every subscription.
Maintenance or management? One table.

| New pages and articles | No | Included from Business plan |
| Ongoing SEO development | No | Yes, in every plan |
| Visibility in AI answers (GEO) | No | Yes, in every plan |
| Visibility report | No | Monthly from Business plan |
Why visibility belongs in management
A well-maintained but invisible website is a polished storefront in a side alley. Two systems decide today whether your customers find you: classic search engines and AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI that recommend suppliers directly. We structure your site so both systems can read, understand and cite it, and we measure the results with our own probing infrastructure, so you never have to wonder whether it is working. The magazine article how AI answer engines change the way buyers find your business explains this shift in detail.
What a managed month looks like
- Your change requests by email, implemented within 48 hours (one, two or four per month depending on plan, every additional one $49)
- Technology run: updates, security checks, backup verification
- New content: expert articles and pages (from Business plan)
- Visibility work: structure, internal linking, metadata craft, SEO and GEO in every plan
- Visibility report with inquiries, rankings and AI citations (monthly from Business plan)
Management is not a separate contract with us but part of every plan: the pricing overview of the website subscriptions lists the details. How build and operations fit together is shown on the page about the process from order to ongoing operations.
Frequently asked
Managed service, in short answers.
01 What does a managed website service include?
Four areas: technology (updates, security, backups, hosting), content (changes, new pages, freshness), visibility (search engines and AI answer engines) and reporting (what your website actually produces in inquiries). Providers who only install updates are doing maintenance, not management.
02 How much does website management cost per month?
Pure maintenance plans cost $50 to $150 per month in the US and cover technology only. Management including content and visibility work runs $200 to $600. With us, full management is built into every website subscription, from $79 per month including the website itself. You get the whole trade, not a single task.
03 How fast are changes implemented?
Committed in writing: within 48 hours, on every plan. Each plan includes a fixed number of change requests per month (one, two or four, depending on plan). A change request is one email from you with connected small adjustments, no ticket bureaucracy; every additional request costs $49.
04 My website already exists. Can you take over managing it?
In most cases we rebuild your existing site on our stack, because reliably running technology from another shop usually costs more than a clean rebuild. The rebuild is included in your subscription and your content moves with you. Based on your answers to our online questions, we tell you plainly what makes sense.
05 Why is a classic maintenance plan not enough?
Maintenance keeps your website from breaking. It does not keep it from going stale, invisible and quiet. Since your buyers started asking ChatGPT and Perplexity for suppliers, ongoing visibility work decides whether your website gets found at all.
